New York Court of Appeals
Matter of Won Yi v. New York State Bd. of Professional Med. Conduct
May 22, 20252025 NY Slip Op 03103
Summary
The Court of Appeals affirmed the determination revoking the physician's medical license because substantial evidence supported the hearing committee's findings. The Board's expert properly used clinical practice guidelines as one component of a broader standard-of-care analysis grounded in professional experience and patient-specific medical principles, and the committee was entitled to assess the expert's credibility. Any error in the Appellate Division's judicial notice of guidelines not admitted into evidence was harmless. No separate opinions were filed.
